Without Logistics Automotive Edition

OVERVIEW

WHEN LOGISTICS WORKS, THE WORLD WORKS 

The automotive sector is undergoing rapid transformation. Electrification, digitalisation and new mobility models are reshaping how vehicles are built, moved and sold. But as the industry evolves, so do its vulnerabilities.  

 

Without Logistics: Automotive Edition reveals how automakers are navigating this uncertainty by strengthening supply chains, restoring confidence and building lasting resilience.

THE ENGINE BEHIND AUTOMOTIVE PERFORMANCE

The automotive sector faces more than 13,000 supply chain disruptions annually, which could cost the industry over $13 billion, with average incident costs nearing $1 million. 

 

These figures expose the pressure facing just-in-time supply chains. A single disruption can stall production lines and delay deliveries across markets. That’s why leading firms put their supply chain at the core of their strategy, protecting margins, restoring control and turning resilience into a competitive edge.
